Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.

Class	Grade	Dressing	Avg wt	$/cwt	$/head	Head
Bulls	—	Average	1,739	121.90	2,120	20
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Low	1,458	99.93	1,457	74
Cows	Boner 80-85%	High	1,220	97.48	1,189	81
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	968	79.74	772	94

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age

Bred stock and pairs are reported per head, not per hundredweight — these prices are never mixed with the $/cwt figures above.

Class	Stage	Age	Avg wt	$/head	Head
Bred Cows	2nd/3rd Stage (4-9 mo)	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	1,121	$1,245	25
Bred Cows	2nd/3rd Stage (4-9 mo)	Aged (>8 yrs)	1,148	$1,176	10
